Saint JohnSão João
Is sleepingEstá dormindo
Doesn't hear meNão me ouve não
Wake up, wake upAcordai, acordai
Wake up JohnAcordai João

I threw rosesAtirei rosas
Along the wayPelo caminho
The wind cameA ventania veio
And took them awayE levou
You made meTu me fizestes
With your thornsCom seu espinhos
A crown of flowersUma coroa de flor
